Jaunted at Sundance: Table Crashing at The Spur

The Spur may have an address on Main Street, but the door is down this sinister alleyway, which we'd like to think keeps yuppies away. (As this is Park City, it probably doesn't work too well.) Still, this live music-and-cowboy cookin' bar is a nice place to warm up after walking up and down the main drag.

At the bar, a couple of TVs had college basketball on, though one was tuned to a Fuel TV show about skateboarding in Israel. When we stopped in, the music act hadn't yet taken the (small) stage, but judging by the number of banjos, fiddles and guitars, it promised to be a wild night.

We weren't feeling too famished, so we opted for a peppered beef quesadilla off the small plates menu. Not much later, an itsy plate appeared. Maybe we shouldn't have been surprised--they did say "small"--but most Tex Mex/cowboy places we've ever been to serve up enough food to feed a family. Portion disappointment aside, it was a really good quesadilla.

The Spur has live music on the schedule for every night of Sundance, so if you're looking for more cowbell, this is the place.
